Chef Crumbs steps beside the easel. “For this afternoon, the sign needs three things: a clear welcome, a secure frame, and a way to hang beside the bulletin board. It does not need transportation.”

Glitch nods. “The transportation is excellent, though.”

“Very,” Chef Crumbs says. “It can remain excellent tomorrow.”

Socks examines the laid-out pieces with an inventor’s precision. “Required: sign board, frame, two fasteners, paint details, mounting points. Optional: portable stand, wheels, cart conversion, revised labels, universal symbol key, and whatever this charming little arrow is intended to do.”

Glitch turns the rounded arrow between two fingers. “Mostly rotate.”

“Strong optional feature,” Socks says approvingly.

Mo draws three boxes on the rolling board and connects them with one straight line. “Paint. Assemble. Hang.”

Glitch studies the sequence. “That is aggressively simple.”

“It has a deadline,” Mo replies.

Chip looks at the neat pile of optional plans. “What happens to the rest?”

Glitch’s attention catches on them again.

Chef Crumbs answers before the pile can become active work. “We keep every idea. We just need somewhere they can wait without holding a meeting.”
